Perilimnastes dongchauensis (tribe Sonerileae, Melastomataceae), a new species from Quang Trị province, Vietnam
in having elliptic-lanceolate leaf blades, few-flowered inflorescences, 4-merous flowers, and similar anther morphology. However, it differs in several key characteristics, with stems and petioles densely setose (vs. glabrous), leaves equal or subequal in a pair (vs. unequal, rarely subequal) and adaxial surface setose (vs. glabrous), hypanthia setose (vs. glabrous), calyx lobes narrowly triangular (vs. linear), and petals much larger, measuring 17-20 × 13-18 mm (vs. ca. 6 × 3.5 mm).
